Help

Hi.

I need help on the following thing:

I have downloaded the Lav addons Pack. and install it.

well if I start Ofp I get in the start of it, an error note that go's Like this:

'o|#:': error unnone operator'

I think its an misplaced thing in the config.file of it.

But want to be sure so can you give me some idea's about it.

I tested Ofp firmly and it is only, afther I install these  Lav addons.

If I can fix this problem error of it then I can use them in myn Mfcti mission.

And can place an Fix file for it on the Site of it.

In front verry and verry much thank's

Looks more like a script/init line error for me.

For example, if you write jeep1 unassignvehicle player you get 'jeep1 |#|unassignvehicle player': Error Unknown Operator unassignvehicle.

The right line is unassignvehicle player, because a special vehicle is not requested for this command and produces the error.

It's always confusing that the error message reports a correct command like unassignvehicle wrong, instead of jeep1 which is the real mistake here.

Is your error message really that short? You would have to remove an "o" somewhere in the addon nothing more.

the error messages are clear, they aren't supposed to show what is wrong, but where it encountered an error in the syntax.

So, the message

'jeep1 |#|unassignvehicle player': Error Unknown Operator unassignvehicle

does not tell that string "unassignvehicle" is wrong, it just tells you that there is something wrong after jeep1, because start of the line is ok, ther is nothing wrong in line starting with 'jeep1' (a variable name), that's pretty normal, the problem is in what follows.

Thank's for the Fast Repply.

I will dig in to the Config.file of it.

And start my search for the "o"

and Yes the error is that short

I hoopt that it would be bigger so that I have more to go on.

But that is not the thing.

You speak off addon? but would this not be found in the Config.file? ( of the addon.)

Becaus if it is an addon,

then I'm lost.( the addon.file it self p3d and so on.)

Dont no how to rewrite or edit them or where to look for.

The config.file, it self is no problem to me.

Whell thank's for the answer and I'll fill you in on the founding's that I make on it.

when you have one of the following addons :

SEF LAV pack

SEF CH53 pack

SEF HMMWV pack

All those addons from FischKopp (Semper Fidelis Addons Studios) are requiring a file named SEF_Misc.pbo.

In the scripts inside the SEF_Misc.pbo is the source of this error popping up everytime when you launch OFP with those addons.

some have said it was certainly the MCAR scripts that are inside the SEF_Misc.pbo.

Personnally i have no idea of what is the faulty script exactly neither how to correct it unfortunately

This error type is more known to mission makers/scripters, no matter if they script for missions or addons. So I'm speaking somewhat off addon.

I think Sanctuary gave you a good idea which addon to depbo.

Syntax lines (mini script) could already be found in an addon config.cpp as part of eventhandlers...

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">class eventhandlers {init = [_this select 0] exec \zombiescripts\initmalezombie.sqs};

...while the important scripts inside of an addon will be stored as .sqs (script) or .sqf (function) files. You can edit them with notepad.

What you'll have to search in these parts of the addon is:

- an o

- and because the error msg is that short, it has to be a line containing only an o, nothing else.

EDIT: - it starts to look like a small typo in one of the script files for me...

Hi.

Yes, (Sanctuary) I use the SEF LAV pack.

And guess what, I'll was searching in the wrong addon.file's

Becaus as you say there are three addon folders.

1) SEF_LAV-X.pbo ( this one I have search the Config.file)

2) SEF_LAV-XCfg.pbo ( this one I have search the Config.file)

3) SEF_Misc.pbo ( And yes this one, I forget.)  

Whell I hoop that I found something on it.

But in the meantime I'm thinking that it could be an outcome of some class eventhandlers like ( Trapper say's)

If it is an sum like ( if\then \goto)more or less

Then I'll will be very bizzy with it. And I'm not sure if I can Fix the problem.

Because if "o" have to be an number and it stay's on "o"

Or what ever.

then you have to work through the whole script.

And must have to no the (wat,where,how,when.)

But Ill will give it an tray. You never no.

Very much thank's for the info and fast Repply on it.

I will fill you in on the founding's that I make on it.

And maybe that I have more call upon's. on you
